Yes. I like some elements from Bas style. Some of moves are very similar to SFS. He beat Frank Shamrock and block almost all his TD attacks. However i guess SFS methods are not allowed in MMA. Especially the counter TD attacks pack because the judge gave red card to Bas. Bas Rutten VS Frank Shamrock and Bas wins. Frank was hitted in the head very hard many times. Particulary in this match his TD defence is is bad on the first part but very good on second.

@LORDVADER357 Funny how you mention Bas. I'm a HUGE fan of Bas Rutten and was planning to train in his gym when I move further north in CA, but he's not really well known for his TD defense at all (especially in Pancrase), that's why he learned how to fight from his back and had a personal crash course in submission wrestling in order to nail those leglocks.against people taking him to the ground.

@LORDVADER357 You won't be able to if you don't know how to sprawl properly or time your knees right (assuming they attempt a TD from the front - you can't knee them if they go from the side, from waist, greco clinch or ankle pick). Besides, Frank never really shot for really low double legs during his time in Pancrase (and against Bas), and only did it when he was in UFC. I've yet to see someone KO a guy when their balance and footing are taken away by someone lifting them up from their legs.

So if you grab my legs like this i cannot have enough power to punch you, throw you, or perform any powerful counter attack? Really? If you try such low grab against well performed strikes there will be no teeth in your mount after. You skip the fact that your hands are busy with my legs and your head is 100% uncovered all the time...You grab my legs i grab your head,knee strike, downstrike kick/punch. See how Bas block all these attacks and how strikes at shamrock

@LORDVADER357 If both your legs are grabbed, you won't have good footing to throw a good punch or elbow. Even the strongest boxers are extremely weak if they don't use their legs. Loads of ways to setup takedowns too, if people just think it's just double leg or single legs TDs. Remember, MMA guys are MARTIAL ARTISTS themselves - that's why it's called mixed martial arts. They know what every other MA guy knows, the difference is they put it to actual practice instead of just making theories

I watch it. It was good throw. But Igor was weak oponent. All Igor effort's was a bad punch where he missed and that's all no block, no counter attack no attempt to do anything. Some people even said that is a set up match. If grab my legs with your both hands means that your head is mine as well as your body cause will get very powerful headshot. Any MMA superstar can be beaten like baby by SFS fighter. However lets stick to MMA Watch Frank Shamrock VS Bas Rutten.

SFS is far superior than any style especially than MMA. Cos in MMA you fight naked while in SFS fight is with all gear on you including thick clothes,steel boots, etc.such attack in SFS and you will get a nice straight low kick in jaws,knee or uppercut, banishing flat, throat strike, backhead punch, dual handed pushback, overhead hammer crush, throws... Also i can move backwards,forwards or sideways so you will get down on floor. You just skip the part that head is uncovered all the time....
